Our conversation with pet photographer, Fred Levy, uncovers the unique challenges of photographing pets. We discuss what differentiates a professional photo from those smartphone pics we snap on an almost daily basis, tips for getting the right shot with your own pet, and why everyone should consider professional pet photos at various stages of their pet's lives. Additionally, Fred discusses his infamous The Black Dogs Project that sheds light on "black dog syndrome", which suggests that black-colored dogs are more likely to be passed over for adoption. In this book, Fred creates unforgettable photos along with owner-written passages of what their black dog means to them.
You may find Fred at FredLevyArt.com as well as his studio in Littleton, MA.
